Sajak Federico Garcia Lorca
Bulan mendamba lelaki
siapa dia bisa melupa?
Mimpi merasuki bumi
mengeras mengkristal.
Geram dan pucat pasi
mengharap laut jadi lelap
lalu menyisiri rambutnya
dengan tangis batu koral.
Ramput ikalnya bersinar
Siapa dia bisa melupa?
ada di dadanya seratus
bibir: sumber semata air.
Ada lembing raksasa
menderu memperisainya
Ada ombak tanpa gerak
laut datar tak beriak.
Tapi Bulan Sang Bulan
Bilakah dia datang lagi?
Tengok, tirai-tirai angin
gemetar tak juga berhenti.
Bulan mendamba lelaki
Siapa dia bisa melupa?
Mimpi merasuki bumi
mengeras mengkristal.

Print of the Garden II
The Moon widow
who could forget her?
Dreaming that Earth
might be crystal.
Furious and pallid
wishing the sea to sleep
combing her long hair
with cries of coral.
Her tresses of glass
who could forget them?
In her breast the hundred
lips of a fountain.
Spears of giant
surges guard her
by the still waves
of sea-flats.
But the Moon Moon
when will she return?
The curtain of wind
trembles without ceasing.
The Moon widow
who could forget her?
Dreaming that Earth
might be crystal.
